OMG!

I used to love watching H R PufnStuf...I haven't seen that since I was a kid. You're right the creator must've been at Woodstock...did you hear PufnStuf say, "don't nobody touch them mushrooms!"

They sure had a long opening song, too - practically longer than the show.

And, yes I definitely remember the Coke commercial...in fact, I have a little story. In 6th grade my best friend wanted to join chorus & wanted me to join to. "NO!", I said. I did not sing & didn't want to. She convinced me to come to the audition with her & just try because "it will be fun to be in it together". So, I went & reluctantly sang the required audition song, "Born Free" (I thought pretty badly esp. with that high part) & lo and behold I made it & she didn't! I ended up staying in chorus & we sang, "I want to teach the world to sing" to the public. My one & only time doing anything extracuricular.

by **tammy** » Tue Sep 18, 2007 5:15 pm

This song was always on the juke box at the pizza parlor...."Hair" by the Cowsills (this was the least hairiest video I could find - couldn't find an original clip)...

http://youtube.com/watch?v=mYGP3CIT4r4

BTW, in looking that up I just learned that The Cowsills sang the theme song for "Love American Style"...huh.

For a while they were running those old shows on the local cable channel here in Orange County. I was thinking oh how cool to see the old shows I used to watch again... HR Puf N Stuf, Lidsville, Sigmond the Sea Monster, Land of the Lost. But then it was like :shock:

that's what I used to watch!!! They were actually pretty weird looking back :lol:

Sure do! But, never knew the singer's name was Question Mark!

The organ figured prominently in a lot of this music during this era...like this one:

WitchiePoo was the best part of the shows - hilarious! I still remember that song she sang, "Oranges Poranges...who cares" (now I have to look that up - my youngest is getting a kick out of these old clips). And, know I understand the title H.R. PufnStuff = puffing stuff.

I never realized it before, but you're probably right about the title

! Does anyone remember watching Danger Island featuring a very young and cute Jan Michael Vincent (before the booze & pills got the best of him) or Electra Woman and Dyna Girl? I think Deidra Hall played Electra Woman. They still feature some of these shows on Boomerang now and then.

Holy cow, I didn't know David Crosby was in The Byrds. Here's the 1965 t.v. clip: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lKVlOxtl ... ed&search=

The lyrics come straight from the Old Testament of the Bible. (kinda like TBF takes from the Bible)

The one I remember is that Beach Boys track from (now I might be wrong) Surf's Up, me thinks. Take a load off your feet or take good care of your feet....cool song that one :wink:

and I'm sure the Student Demonstration song came off the same album and while I'm thinking something about Disney Girls, all great stuff. Yep that's my Flower album.
